Beware of Mr. Rust
Some people have a reputation for rusting everything that they hold. These
people have unique body oil. I don't know if it contains metal salts, high
moisture content, or low pH. If you have guests in your shop, be careful
about letting them handle good steel or tools. You might be the first to
discover that Uncle Bert is one of those guys with a corrosive touch.

It's why I cringe whenever someone "sits in" with the band on a song and
asks to use my bass ... some people will rust steel instrument strings
between songs.
